Background And Objective: Apixaban is increasingly being used for stroke prevention in patients with end-stage kidney disease with atrial fibrillation undergoing haemodialysis, but no pharmacostatistical model is available for dosage adjustment. This study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic model of apixaban in these patients to characterise its dialytic clearance and determine optimal dosing regimens and discontinuation timing before surgery.
Methods: Patients received 2.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to describe current use, clinical practice, and outcomes of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in children in the intensive care unit (ICU) in Australia and New Zealand.
Design: retrospective, binational registry-based cohort study and electronic survey of clinical practice.
Setting: ICUs that contribute to the Australian and New Zealand Paediatric Intensive Care Registry and a survey conducted in November 2021 including ICUs accredited for paediatric intensive care training that provide CRRT for children were part of this study.

Background: Venous outflow is the favored access for endovascular management of dialysis fistulas. However, transradial access (TRA) offers advantages in specific clinical scenarios. The study aims to compare the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of TRA and transvenous access (TVA) in the endovascular management of malfunctioning dialysis fistulas, addressing the existing gap in comprehensive literature.

Background: Blood pressure (BP) control in haemodialysis (HD) patients is essential. Peri-dialytic BP levels do not accurately diagnose hypertension or predict the cardiovascular (CV) mortality.
Methods: In this study, we recruited 43 adult patients who had been on chronic HD for ≥3 months.

Objective: Retrospective study to examine the outcomes of acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-D) patients that received outpatient hemodialysis as part of continued AKI-D care and explore factors associated with recovery of kidney function and discontinuation of dialysis.
Methods: Records of all admissions to Emory Dialysis centers between January 2010 to December 2021 were reviewed to include patients with confirmed diagnosis of AKI-D. Basic demographics, comorbidities, duration of hospitalization and cause of AKI were extracted from hospital records and cross-referenced with the dialysis center electronic health record.
